0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Pinpoll is a technology company specializing in providing software solutions for real-time data collection, management, and analytics primarily targeting publishers and advertisers. Their platform includes tools for creating polls, quizzes, and forms, a data management platform (DMP) for first-party data generation, and analytics services to visualize and understand audience data. The company positions itself as a niche player in the digital media and data analytics space with a focus on GDPR compliance and data-driven audience engagement. Technically, the website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks such as Vue.js and Nuxt.js, with optimized performance and mobile responsiveness. The site integrates third-party services like Intercom for customer engagement and uses lazy loading techniques for embedded content. The technical infrastructure appears mature and well-implemented, supporting a professional user experience. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, potentially impacting trustworthiness, though the website content and business presence are professional. Overall, Pinpoll presents a credible and professional digital presence with strong business and technical foundations. However, improvements in transparency around domain registration and security policies would enhance trust and compliance posture.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Pinpoll operates in the technology and media sectors, offering SaaS solutions for data collection and analytics. Their business model revolves around subscription-based access to their tools and platforms, targeting digital publishers and advertisers seeking to leverage first-party data. The company demonstrates strong partnerships with reputable media organizations, enhancing its market credibility. Revenue streams likely include software licenses, premium features, and consulting or demo services. Growth indicators include customer testimonials and a diverse partner ecosystem. Strategic observations suggest a focus on GDPR compliance and real-time data insights as competitive advantages.

Security posture

The security maturity level of Pinpoll's website is moderate to good. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is implemented, indicating attention to privacy compliance. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No published security or incident response policies were found, and no vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file is present. The absence of WHOIS data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, which should be addressed. Overall, the site shows good baseline security but would benefit from enhanced transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy including incident response procedures.
  2. Add security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program and provide a security.txt file for researchers.
  4. Verify and update domain WHOIS information to improve legitimacy and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern tech stack centered on Vue.js and Nuxt.js frameworks, enabling server-side rendering and optimized performance. The use of lazy loading for embedded polls and videos enhances load times. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the hosting provider and CMS are not explicitly identified. The technical implementation is robust, but adding security headers and improving domain registration transparency would reduce technical risks.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
